SUMMARY:Body in Motion: A Healing Practice
DESCRIPTION:Navigating being human in these times\, there is a tender dance between our overactive stress response – overstimulated minds and nervous systems and our overly down-regulated response system. We are bounced between anxiety and shutdown\, hypervigilance and numbness\, exhaustion and overwhelm. In this workshop\, we will weave somatic movement and dance practices that allow us to experience\, express and embody different waves of states of being and feeling. We will anchor in the here and now with breath\, awareness and embodiment. \nWe will release stored and pent up energy\, listen to the ancient wise knowing in our bones from our ancestors. We will travel through time and space to connect our dots\, where we stand at the apex. \nAll of this\, in community. \nALLISON TALIS SOMATIC AND CREATIVE HEALING ARTS: \nAllison is a somatic practitioner and the creator of Soul Dance\, formerly known as Emotion in Motion\, out of twenty-five years of study\, training\, and practice in the performing and healing arts. She served as the National Healing & Wellness Practitioner for the Joyful Heart Foundation\, and she founded Creative Seeds\, a non-profit organization focused on working with communities through creative arts immersion projects in both South Africa and the United States. \nAllison is a certified Historical Trauma Specialist and Certified Integrative Somatic Trauma Practitioner. She holds a Master’s Degree in Theatre with a focus on addressing Historical Trauma and Collective Healing. \nAllison was named one of the 2015 United States Presidential Scholars’ most influential teachers by the United States Secretary Department of Education. She is a Theater Director and has directed at numerous theaters in New York City\, regionally\, and internationally. She received mentorship as an Assistant Director at the Steppenwolf Theatre. She was an ongoing Resident Director with New York University’s First Look Theatre Company\, a member of the Lincoln Center Theatre Directors’ Lab\, and a 2004 SSDC Traube Fellowship nominee. \nAllison has studied\, trained\, certified\, practiced\, and walked many paths and methodologies in the creative healing arts\, trauma\, and mental health realms. From Yoga\, ayahuasca\, meditation\, shamanic paths\, Indigenous teachers\, life as an artist—to Buddhist immersion\, chanting\, and Dance\, she weaves together a journey for YOU. \nTickets Here\n\nIf you or a guest in your party has accessibility needs for this event\, please contact Joe Juknievich at joe@dancecomplex.org or (617) 547-9363.
